Dua Lipa stuns with custom Porsche at Goodwood

Pop icon Dua Lipa didn’t fly under the radar when she arrived at this international event with some million-dollar bling.

Pop icon Dua Lipa arrived in style for the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed with a custom Porsche 911 GT3 RS worth more than $1 million.

The bespoke supercar designed by Dua Lipa was the star of Porsche’s display as she cruised up the fabled hill climb alongside racers from the all-female Iron Dames team.

The “one kiss” singer styled a special livery for Porsche’s sports car, combining striking turquoise, red, gold and dark green elements.

This one-off Porsche will go under the hammer, auctioned off by RM Sotheby’s, with proceeds going to the Sunny Hill Foundation, a charity that supports Kosovan causes including giving young women access to STEM education.

“I wanted to create something that fuses the emotion of music, design, and driving,” Dua Lipa said.

“The Sunny Hill Foundation has always been close to my heart, and this project is a celebration of the culture and creativity it supports.”

Dua Lipa’s design is a wrap applied to a car with much more subtle arctic grey paint, along with pyro red wheels and carbon ceramic brakes gripped by yellow-painted calipers.

Under the skin, the special Porsche is equipped with an optional “Weissach” package featuring a roll cage, roof, and suspension elements made from carbon fibre to save weight.

Powered by a 4.0-litre flat six engine, the 911 GT3 RS produces 380kW of power at a soaring 9000rpm.

It’s not the fastest car in a straight line – 0-100km/h is sorted in 3.2 seconds – but it is one of the quickest cars to lap circuits, thanks to enormous spoilers that generate huge amounts of downforce.

Dua Lipa’s car could appeal to collectors – as well as folks who missed out on the model, which is no longer available to order as the brand has introduced a newer, “992.2” series Porsche 911, which is not yet available in GT3 RS trim.

The model originally went on sale locally in 2023 for $500,200 plus on-road costs.

But lightly used examples are listed on websites such as Carsales for around $850,000 drive-away, suggesting Dua Lipa’s exclusive example should be worth a seven-figure sum.
